on behalf of sylvia - who is hopefully asleep, i can add that the TC
wanted to have some other eyeballs to review these edits before they
were caste into stone as part of the schemas. we saw a canference call
as an efficient way of running through what you propose and signing off.
so it would be less value to have a call without you. if sylvia's time
is inconvenient then can you propose another.
we need to conclude this in the next few days if we want the changes to
go into the final package.
also, i am assuming you have also incorporated the changes already
flagged in the previous review.
the UBL/TBG1 report is useful because we would all appreciate this
perspective going into the CEFACT Forum. Unfortunately I cannot attend
but Sylvia will be there (albeit with her TBG6 hat on). It would be
useful to talk over the differences in approach before you get to New
Delhi.

Re: [ubl-psc] Urgent PSC Call Needed
Sylvia
The spreadsheets I am working on are the PRD3 final spreadsheets. I
hope to finish the work today.
Vis-à-vis the convergence work with TBG1, I am happy to report that we
are on target with the plan and that we have completed mapping the
Invoice, Credit Note, Debit Note and Remittance Advice but for a few
issues of a structural nature. We are now working together with a good
level of understanding and purpose.
In summary, the issues relate to the use of core components and the
assembly of documents from the same. Whereas we have adopted a
“library’ approach (where we need a BBIE in a document, we bring it to
the document in the context of its ABIE using an association), TBG1
have gone for a “picking” approach which brings the BBIE to the
document without its neighbours in the ABIE. Neither of us have any
overwhelming advice that either of these approaches is the correct one
and we will need some urgent advice on these issues from the relevant
UN/CEFACT groups for the convergence work to produce a unified standard
of implementable substance.
In the meantime, we will continue with the convergence work and hold
the results in abeyance for the official UN/CEFACT direction on core
component use and message assembly.
I’m sure that Martin will be able to go into some detailed examples to
illustrate these points at the meeting tomorrow. I will try to attend,
but can’t guarantee that I won’t still be in the visa queue at the
Indian High Commission in London.
I haven’t seen any minutes for the Pacific call you refer to. Please
can you let me know what questions were raised and I will comment where
I can.
